Iranians report 'radiant UFO'

Is Fars taking up where the late, lamented Weekly World News left off?

The same thing happened to me once in Las Vegas. I was taken hostage by some people who were pretty strange but, I admit, very enthusiastic. I was held for 90 minutes and made to watch videos about time share opportunities in Florida. I was given a roast beef dinner and a clock radio and then I was released back onto the Strip.

You have to admit that waving a loaded autorifle in a crowded room tends to rivet attention. The real question I have is whether he was getting any feedback from the audience.

I've often wondered how many of these suicide bombers and other jihadis have severe mental illness but are functional enough to be exploited by the imams. I'll bet it's more than a few.

The only problem with this guy is that he didn't go after Americans or Israelis. Then he'd be a national hero. It's the target that makes the difference between a nutjob and a glorious martyr.

“Witnesses said that the man who carried a Kalashnikov rifle merely intended to inform the audience of his personal problems.”

He thought he had personal problems before he did this.

“Psychic Takes 500 Hostage in Tehran University “

But the question is, did he know he was going to do it yesterday?

Witnesses said that the man who carried a Kalashnikov rifle merely intended to inform the audience of his personal problems. Eye-witnesses also said that the man intended to show some CDs and documents to the hostages.

So THAT's what Al Gore has been up to!

He knew he was going to do it, before he did it.

I’m just curious. An Iranian is dismissed from his job with the Iranian government because he is psycholigically unqualified. He goes mental and kidnaps a bunch of people at gunpoint.

Exactly how was he unqualified to work for their government?

Does a psychic have a “to do” list?
